Default LED bulbs not so bad

Sounds like you should tilt those headlights

inconsiderate to keep blinding other drivers

you've been asked many times, to dim the brights.


Tell the factory that! Car rides up higher than a
regular car -- should all truck drivers deliberately
point their lights at the ground (instead of "aiming"
them as required?)

Should folks not be allowed to use halogen and HID lights
because they're brighter??

Properly aimed, they should not be blinding others no matter how bright.

One possibility is some drivers just see they are brighter and assume
you have the high beams on even if they are not blinded.

Possible aim is bad from the factory. Unlikely, but stuff happens.

The factory specs are less than the best. I sometimes do notice the
Jeep SUV type is a bad aim for oncoming cars. I see a couple of them
and they are brighter in my eyes than any other car.

Another possibility is you have 6 bags of concrete in the trunk and the
lights are looking up. Many cars have self leveling lights though.
